Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.

Parks did the same thing.
Check it.
And it began with me.
Did you know, did you know?

Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment.

The world's most dangerous morning show,
The Breakfast Club.
Man, what the hell is this, man?
Breakfast Club, bitches.
I'm glad they put y'all together.
Y'all are like a mega force.
Y'all just took over everything.
Wake your punk ass up.
This is Chris Brown.
I've officially joined the Breakfast Club.
Say something, mother f***er.
I'm with it.
The world's most dangerous morning show.
Breakfast Club, bitches. Good morning, USA!
Hey!
Good morning, Angela Yee.
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
Good morning.
Good morning, DJ Envy.
It's Tuesday.
How you feeling today, Yee?
What's up with your voice?
I'm a little tired.
I'm going to tell you what.
It's Tuesday.
You know, once a week, I try to, I do date night.
Me and my wife, we just go out and we just have a good time.
And that's what you should do with your spouse, your girlfriend, your boyfriend.
You should have date night at least once a week where it's just you and her, no kids,
no other people.
And we went on a date last night and dinner was at eight and we didn't leave the restaurant
until like 1 a.m.
And we were just having a conversation.
And just the time just went. We were just having a conversation. The time just went.
We were just having a conversation.
It was a good conversation.
But it was in the city, so I didn't get home until like 2 a.m.
And now?
And now I'm tired as hell.
It's like hosting a party.
It's like hosting a party, right.
You know, same thing.
You're drinking.
You're having a good time.
You're talking.
We're dancing.
And the next thing I know, it's late as hell.
I'm like, I've got to go to work in the morning.
Well, I did this panel yesterday called Winning Plays with Stacey
Tisdale. She's been on The Breakfast Club
before. She's an award-winning journalist
that teaches about finances.
And it was exciting because I got to meet Gloria Steinem.
Okay. Iconic feminist.
It was about black feminism.
So it was a great night. I learned
some wonderful stories about people that were there.
Yeah, so I'll be updating you guys on what happened.
But it's going to actually be on the Griot today if you want to check it out.
The Griot.com, the panel of all the women.
One woman was on there talking about how she, her name is Grace.
She became a financial planner.
But she actually was living in a homeless shelter while she was going to school.
And managed to get her degree and everything.
Wow.
Nice.
Can't wait to see that.
I can see that way on griot.com, you said?
Yes.
Spell it for the people.
G-R-I-O?
G-R-I-O.
Okay.
Just making sure.
All right.
Now, today on the show, Karen Civil will be joining us.
Hey, Karen.
Now, for people who don't know Karen Civil, explain to the people who Karen Civil is.
How do you explain Karen Civil?
She does a little bit of everything.
She's from Elizabethan, Jersey.
She does a lot of branding.
She has her own branding company.
She started off as an intern and worked her way up.
She's worked with Young Money Cash Money.
She's worked with Beats by Dre.
She's worked with Louis Vuitton.
She's really doing her thing out there.
With Dipset.
I'm really happy for her.
I actually met Karen back then when I was at Sirius,
and she was a young lady working for Dipset and then
working for Young Money Cash Money. Very early
on in her career. Alright, so we'll kick it with Karen
Silva a little bit later. And we got front page news.
What are we talking about? We are talking about
this travel ban. Donald Trump is
looking at this as a win
because he got some success with
this travel ban he's been trying to get through.
Alright, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked.
Wake your ass up.
This is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Now, last night was the NBA Awards.
It was hosted by Drake.
And the NBA Most Valuable Player, MVP,
goes to Russell Westbrook.
I ain't gonna lie.
That awards team match stale once you do it
after the season is all the way over.
Didn't they used to do it during the season at one point?
Did they?
Yeah, like during the finals at least.
Yeah, during the playoffs.
During the playoffs.
Yeah, it just seemed mad stale at the end of the year.
You don't forget what Russell Westbrook did.
Nah, you don't forget what he did.
I mean, he averaged a triple-double.
But when was the last time you mentioned that?
Before last night.
I mean, the season's over now.
Exactly.
My point exactly.
Now let's talk about, we got audio?
Let's hear audio of him thanking his parents. I can't say's over now. Exactly. My point exactly. Now let's talk about, we got audio? All right, let's hear audio of him thanking his parents.
I can't say thank you enough.
You guys sacrificed everything you've done in your life.
Pops, OG, working two jobs, getting up at 4 in the morning,
waking me up every night, going to the gym,
shooting hoops outside, staying up late,
playing the video games, man.
To my mom from doing everything to keep our family together.
Truly, truly blessed to have you as my mother.
It's just so amazing.
I couldn't be able to do none of this without you guys.
Dope.
Absolutely dope.
Now let's get into your president, Yee.
Yes, your president.
The Supreme Court has allowed a little watered-down version of the travel ban to take effect for now.
They're going to have to revisit this in October.
And what they have said is the people from the six countries that President Trump has listed for the travel ban can only travel to the United States if they possess a bona fide relationship with the U.S.
Now, what does that exactly mean?
Definitely going to cause some confusion at the airport. But what they are saying, for example, if you're
a student or a lecturer and you have a formal
relationship, that would
count as a bona fide
relationship. If you are somebody who has
accepted employment
with an American company, that would count.
But it wouldn't apply to somebody who
enters into a relationship simply to
avoid the executive order. So you can't
just go to a non-profit group that is devoted to immigration issues and then say, yes, I have a relationship simply to avoid the executive order. So you can't just go to a nonprofit group that is devoted to immigration issues
and then say, yes, I have a relationship just to establish that.
It's going to be confusing.
That's beyond confusing.
Facebook don't even got that.
Yeah, I can't even imagine how you can determine.
Facebook got single, married, complicated, not a bona fide relationship.
How do you prove that?
What kind of bona fide relationship is the United States?
Right now they're saying refugees being resettled in the U.S.
and visa holders will not be impacted by this,
but we shall see.
Now, Donald Trump tweeted out,
Great day for America's future security
and safety, courtesy of the U.S. Supreme Court.
I will keep fighting for the American people
and win.
Goodness gracious.
I'm confused.
I don't even...
Bona fide relationship,
that actually is just complicated on Facebook.
It basically allows them to make whatever decision they choose to make.
That they want to make, yeah, absolutely.
Now, what else we got front page news?
We'll talk about Philando Castile's family.
They have reached a $3 million settlement, and that is with the city.
The settlement came after the officer was acquitted of second-degree manslaughter.
Sheesh.
That's whack.
I mean, I can never congratulate the families
on getting that money
because it's blood money at the end of the day.
And I know they would much rather have
Philando Castile back than have $3 million.
So it's not even one of those things
where you can be like,
yeah, congratulations to the family.
No.
Not at all.
All right.
That's a terrible consolation prize.
You know, once your loved one gets killed
at the hands of the police. Absolutely. All right. Well, let terrible consolation prize. News. You know, once your loved one gets killed at the hands of the police.
Absolutely.
All right.
Well, let's get it off your chest.

Say it with your chest.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
So you better have the same energy.
Ashley.
Yes.
What's going down in Kentucky, mama?
Well, I almost stole my engagement ring.
Well, I wouldn't say, well, I took it off.
You stole her what?
Engagement ring.
Oh.
My engagement ring.
So I have a real bad habit because I work in the health field,
so I wash my hands constantly.
And I was in the mall, and I went to the restroom,
and I washed my hands, and I took it off.
And it was about 15 minutes
I noticed that I didn't have it
so I go back and it's like super
gone. Did your
boyfriend believe you when you told him that lie?
Yeah, he did. He's like
I mean, we went to the washroom
we went everywhere, no one turned it
in and I feel so bad
because I make more money than him.
So it was kind of hard for him to even, like, save up and get it.
So I feel really bad.
And I don't want to make him feel, like, even worse by, like, going and replacing it.
First of all, you should not make him go replace it because you lost it.
That's your bad.
All right?
Y'all should work together to replace it.
So you just need to be, you gotta be ringless
on wedding day. No!
Like, we have to take pictures. I need it.
No, no, no. But y'all lost it together
so y'all gotta get, I mean, y'all gotta fix it
together. Unless what you do is
you go get a fake one and nobody will know the difference.
Yeah, just get a fake one until you get the real one again.
There you go. For the pictures. Oh, that's horrible.
That is horrible. That just means you
got a fake relationship.
You can't fake it till you make it when it comes to an engagement.
I mean, can you get the real ring again?
Can you guys afford to do that?
Right.
I can go get it.
Like, I want to go get it.
And he's like, no, I just work to go get it.
And I'm like, I don't really want him to have to do that.
Because I feel bad for him.
Y'all in this together, mama.
Everything is together now.
Y'all lost it together.
Y'all have to get it together. Y'all have to get it together.
Y'all have to fake it together.
I think you cheated on them.
I think you cheated on them and you took your wedding ring off while you was cheating.
I'm going to be totally honest with you.
No, we was at the mall together.
You went into the bathroom to get a little quickie with the guy that work at Auntie Annie's.
Oh, my goodness.
Thank you.
Kevin.
Good morning, Kevin.

What's up, bro?
You calling from Atlanta?
Why you mad this morning?
Good morning.
This is Malik.
Salaam.
Charlotte, man.
Good morning.
I'm a little pissed, man, because I read the settlement for the Castile case,
and it seems as if we live in a country that would rather pay millions of dollars in settlement money
than to convict a cop
murder.
That's what it feels like.
It's outlandish.
Let me kill your son for a million dollars.
Yeah, this is outlandish.
I mean, they would rather give money
than to actually admit
to wrongdoing.
And they fired the cop.
They fired the cop.
They gave him $10 million.
He no longer works as a cop in Minnesota wrongdoing. And they fired the cop. They fired the cop. They gave him $10 million.
He no longer works as a cop in Minnesota
at all, but that does not rectify
the real issue
and the problem here. I get you.
I agree, brother. You're absolutely right.
That money is like pacifying people.
It's like, oh, okay, at least they got a settlement.
It's blood money. It's blood money.
It is what it is.
Even with all the Muslims out there. y'all take care, man.
All right, bro.
All right, my brother.
All right, get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us up right now.
Or maybe you feel blessed.
You can always call us up.
Nayee, we got rumors on the way?
Yes, let's discuss the NBA awards from last night.
You know Drake was hosting, and we got some of his jokes.
Let's see if you laugh.
Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
That song is called Red Bone.
Kodak Black need to do it over right now and call it Dark Bone.
And pay homage to these dark-skinned women out here in these streets, okay?
Get them back on your side, Kodak Black.
My goodness. Well, let's get to back on your side, Kodak Black. My goodness.
Well, let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk the NBA Awards.
Listen up.
It's just in.
All the gossip.
Gossip.
The Rumor Report.
Gossip.
Gossip.
With Angela Yee.
It's the Rumor Report.
The Breakfast Club.
Well, the NBA Awards were last night.
Did anybody in here watch them?
Nope.
I didn't.
Oh, yeah, you were on a date night.
I was on a date night last night, yep.
All right, well, Drake was hosting, and he kept the show moving.
He had a lot of jokes throughout the night.
He had a little back and forth with Kenny the Jet Smith.
Now, here is what Kenny Smith said about Drake.
That was great material by Drake, but we had a question.
Did he write it?
Drop on a clothesline for Kenny Smith, damn it.
I don't got no problem with that whatsoever.
Well, here is how Drake responded.
Kenny, somebody just told me about your writing joke backstage.
It's wise words from the most expendable member of the TNT crew.
Okay, that's a little standout.
Is Kenny Smith the most expendable member from the TNT crew?
I don't think none of them are really expendable, to be honest with you.
It's a joke.
You can replace Kenny.
It was a comeback.
No, you could.
You got Charles on one end, Shaq on one end, Ernie's the anchor.
You can replace Kenny.
It was a little stab.
I'm sure it hurt.
Drop one of the clues bombs for Drake.
That was a nice little comeback.
All right.
Now, here is some of Drake's moments from the NBA Awards.
Got Allen Iverson in here somewhere, probably on a super casual vibe,
just connecting with some old friends, you know.
Got the Brooklyn Nets in here trying to get verified on Instagram tonight.
It's a lot of B-checks coming your way, boys, I promise.
I'm legit excited for y'all.
Draymond Green stopped kicking people in the groin
and moved on to something much worse, his own podcast.
It's a tough listen.
LeBron James recently went bald and social
media had an absolute...
Oh, sorry. This is a joke from 2007. We're gonna keep it.
We're gonna keep it rolling.
Eh, it was a little too fast. You could've slowed that
down, paced it a little bit better. Well, yeah, that's what
a lot of people were saying, that it was a little fast.
There was one joke in there I like, and I don't even remember
because it was too fast. Oh, the Brooklyn Nets joke.
That ain't even getting verified out.
No net will ever be verified on social media. Oh, the Brooklyn Nets joke. That ain't even getting verified out. No net will ever be verified
on social media.
Well, as we said...
D'Angelo Russell might be
because he already verified
coming over from the Lakers.
The most valuable player
was Russell Westbrook,
as we told you earlier.
The defensive player of the year
was Draymond Green.
Coach of the year,
Mike D'Antoni.
Yeah, so that's just some...
What was Draymond Green wearing?
Was that like a suit with shorts?
I was confused.
The man's a multimillionaire. It doesn't matter. Look at this outfit. I saw it with the little short shorts? I was confused. The man's a multimillionaire.
Does it matter?
Look at this outfit.
I saw it with the little short pants.
Oh, my goodness.
He's a multimillionaire.
Does it matter?
Now, the Best Style Award also went to Russell Westbrook as well.
So you guys step it up.
Mm-hmm.
All right.
Now, Leslie Jones, you know, she hosted the BET Awards.
By the way, what did you guys think about Leslie Jones as a host?
I didn't see the BET Awards.
I saw the BET Awards on Twitter and Instagram.
I was on a flight.
All right.
Well, she is saying.
JetBlue TV was out that night.
Now that people should not stay at the Ritz-Carlton.
She said, wow, it was such a great night at the BET Awards,
but then had the worst day at Ritz-Carlton.
Do not stay there.
They don't like black people.
I don't know what happened in the Ritz-Carlton.
But she said she stayed there and she didn't provide any further details. Her rep would not respond to a request for comment. And the Ritz-Carlton. But she said she stayed there and she didn't provide any further details.
Her rep would not respond to a request for comment.
And the Ritz-Carlton also responded via Twitter.
They said, we're sorry to hear this.
We pride ourselves on providing excellent service to all.
Please DM us and we'll look into this right away.
Another person who had an issue
and voiced it on Twitter was Kelly Asborn.
She actually went at Starbucks.
She said, shame on you at Starbucks.
I pissed my own pants in this location because your shameful employees refused to let me use the toilet.
I have urine in my shoe.
Which one was that?
Which location?
It's in Manhattan on 27th Street and 6th Avenue.
I'm going to be honest with you.
Don't be serious about that bathroom.
Exactly.
Don't blame the store just because you peed on yourself.
Blame your little loose bowels.
All right? I'm not going to pee on myself just because the store won't let meed on yourself. Blame your little loose bowels, alright?
I'm not going to pee on myself just because the store won't let me
use the bathroom. I'm going to find another place to use the bathroom.
But stores are serious. Usually you can go to
McDonald's because they always let the bathroom open.
But now, you got to get the key.
The door is locked.
You got to buy something.
Buy something. Buy you a little small green tea
and give it to a homeless person if you don't want it.
You really want to use the bathroom that bad?
What if there's a line?
I got to wait till I buy something to use the bathroom?
I'll go right on somebody's tie outside.
Pay to pee.
All you got to do is say, look, I'm about to buy me a green tea, but I got to pee in the meantime.
Could you open the door, please?
And then when you go in and pee, then you walk out and don't pay for the tea.
I do it all the time.
All right.
I do it all the time.
And it ain't even just the Starbucks.
I do that to any store.
When I got to pee or something and they got them bathrooms that lock, I walk in and be like, yo, I'm going any store. When I got to pee or something, and they got them bathrooms that lock,
I walk in and be like, yo, I'm going to order something.
I got to pee real quick, though.
You know, open the gate, boom.
I'm not hungry again.
Thank you.
Have a nice day.
Now, what about places that say, because I've read some people saying
that they don't have an actual restroom for the public use.
Some stores have that, but it shouldn't be McDonald's or Starbucks.
Those should definitely have bathrooms for public use.
I think it also depends on the size.
They said it's a small one.
I don't know if they have one for the public or not, but all right.
I'm not blaming me peeing on myself on no damn Starbucks, though.
All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report.
All right, Miss Yee.
Now, when we come back, we got front page news.
What are we talking about, Yeezy?
We are going to be talking about the settlement for Philando Castile's family.
Okay.
All right, well, let's get into front page's family. Let's get into some front page news.
Let's talk last night, the NBA Awards.
Congratulations to Russell Westbrook.
He won the MVP honors.
Let's hear his speech.
I can't say thank you enough. You guys
sacrificed everything you've done
in your life. Pops, OG,
working two jobs, getting up
at four in the morning, waking me up
every night, going to the gym,
shooting hoops outside, staying up late,
playing the video games, man.
To my mom from doing everything to keep our family together.
Truly, truly blessed to have you as my mother.
It's just so amazing.
I couldn't be able to do none of this without you guys.
You know why he started crying?
Because he realized he got to go play in Oklahoma City for another year.
Okay.
He also got best dressed.
That would bring me to tears, too.
And let's talk about your president, Donald Trump.
Yes, Donald Trump.
The travel ban.
Here's what's going to happen.
The Supreme Court has allowed for the people from the six countries listed in Donald Trump's travel ban
to only travel to the United States if they have a, quote, bona fide relationship with the U.S. Now, who is that? Of course, that is still going to
be subject to interpretation. We don't know what could potentially happen. It sounds like a mess.
But what they have said is these are the people who have that bona fide relationship, people with
a close familial relationship to someone in the U.S., students that are going to a university in
the United States, workers who have accepted an offer of employment from a company in the U.S., students that are going to a university in the United States, workers who have accepted an offer of employment from a company in the U.S., and lecturers who are
invited to speak to an American audience.
Right now, refugees being resettled in the U.S. and visa holders will not be impacted
by this travel ban, and they're going to review this in October.
But right now, they are letting this limited version go into effect in the meantime.
That's a new Facebook status.
You got single, married, complicated, now bona fide relationships.
What is bona fide relationships?
You only have unprotected sex with people you're in a bona fide relationship with.
That seems crazy.
And that is definitely subject to interpretation.
What's going to happen when you're at the airport and you might get turned away,
you might not, depending on what they decide at that time.
You should only let somebody that you're in a bona fide relationship with toss your salad.
Now, Donald Trump tweeted out,
Great day for America's future security and safety.
Courtesy of the U.S. Supreme Court, I will keep fighting for the American people and win.
We had a couple abortions, but we're still in a bona fide relationship.
Oh, goodness. What else are we talking about for patients?
We had a couple abortions, and she knows I got a man, girl.
All right.
Philando Castile, his mother, reached a nearly $3 million settlement with the city after the officer who fired the fatal shots, Yanez, was actually acquitted.
So that's what they got.
And just to put it into perspective, the family of Michael Brown, who was the unarmed black teenager killed by the police in 2014, reached a settlement with Ferguson, Missouri.
Blood money.
That was reported to be worth $ with Ferguson, Missouri. Blood money. That was reported to be worth
$1.5 million. Blood money. Cleveland
agreed to pay $6 million to Tamir Rice's
family. Blood money. And there was also
a $6 million settlement in the fatal
shooting of Dan Roy Henry Jr. in
Pleasantville, New York. Blood money.
I can't even feel, you know,
happy for those families because that's a horrible,
horrible consolation prize. Like, you lost
a life, a whole life.
That's priceless.
There's no price you can put on that.
A whole flesh and blood individual just got gunned down for no reason,
and you just throw a check at me and expect all my pain and misery to go away?
It seems crazy.
Come on, man.
The cop got fired.
The city obviously knows they were wrong.
They gave him $3 million, but he still was not convicted.
I'm going to use this money for therapy.
That's what I'm going to use this money for.
I'm going to use this money for therapy for the rest of my'm going to use this money for. I'm going to use this money for therapy for the rest of my life.
My goodness.
All right.
Last front page news.
Now, when we come back, Karen Civil will be joining us.
KC, is it going to be Karen Civil or Karen Uncivil this morning?
I guess we'll have to find out.
Now, if you don't know who Karen Civil is, she started off, she's from New Jersey.
She started off as an intern and really worked her ass off and worked her way up.
Did she just get the key to the city?
She got a key to Elizabethan Jersey.
Now Karen does everything.
Building playgrounds in Haiti.
All kind of stuff.
All right, so we'll talk to her when we come back.
So don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We have a special guest in the building.
I don't know if it's Karen Civil or Karen Uncivil, though.
Which one are we talking to right now?
Karen Civil.
Welcome. Thank you.
And congratulations. You got your own day in Jersey?
We did official Live Civil Day
which was really exciting.
I have a whole set up in Haiti.
We have Live Civil Day in Brooklyn
every year. It only made sense
to bring it back to Elizabeth.
It was a very fun-filled day and they surprised me with the key to the city.
So you got three days in three different places around the world.
Yes.
Dropping the clues bombs for Karen's team.
Absolutely.
Jesus Christ.
Los Angeles next.
Yeah, I'm excited.
I see you on the cover of LA Weekly.
Yes.
How did this happen now?
A Jersey girl on the cover of LA Weekly.
So interesting.
They reached out to me.
The young lady reached out to me and she was just like weird.
They interview 50 people every year for their annual issue.
So when she interviewed me, we did over the phone.
And then they do these profile shots of you, usually like in your house or at work.
So she's like, what do you want to do?
And I'm like, well, I've been in Los Angeles the last six years and I've been
working with Nipsey, so I want to
do it on Crenshaw. And she was
like, okay, where?
So I was like, yeah, let's do it at Nipsey's store.
So when I pulled
up, I'm like, just, you know, alluding
that black girl magic. There you go.
And I just pulled up in the middle of the
hood and they were
like, all right. Okay. Did you pull up in your fandom? Yeah, definitely pulled up. the middle of the hood. And they were like, all right.
Okay.
Did you pull up in your Phantom?
Yeah, definitely pulled up.
It's a race.
Oh, a race.
My bad.
Car talk over here.
Some type of spirit.
Car talk over here.
Yeah, I pulled up.
And she was just like, with the crown on.
And they were like, what the hell is going on?
And, you know, it's's you know, mad urban area
and I didn't even know.
The hood. Yeah, the hood. I was trying to say
the hood. Karen had her corporate voice on
just now. Urban area.
And then we went to the donut shop.
Like, I was just taking her to the most random
places and then like maybe
a month later, they tweeted out
and she was like, I loved it so much. We gave you the cover.
That is dope.
Now, what about people who say that you shouldn't be on there because you're not from L.A.?
Well, I can't really like I can't worry about, you know, critics and what other people have to say, because at the end of the day, it's it was it's it's a blessing that happened.
I was just generally being myself, having fun with it.
And I was just like, listen, don't take it up with me.
Get up with L.A. W just like, listen, don't take it up with me. Get up with LA Wiggly.
They gave it to me.
We got to talk about another picture we've seen you post
that was outside of the Karen Civil box.
I know.
That's Karen Uncivil.
That's Karen Uncivil.
You got people looking at you different, man.
I've never heard guys, and this is the truth,
I've never, even though I've always heard guys say you were pretty,
I've never heard guys look at you in that sexual objectifying way.
I heard somebody say Karen got ass.
No, I know it was.
Or did they say heavy ass?
Heavy ass.
Karen has heavy ass.
That's what I heard.
I was like, huh?
No, it was definitely, it was definitely.
What made you do that photo?
Okay, it was definitely weird.
So like every year I always take different photos.
Like I have different theme photo shoots and stuff like that.
And this year, my hair person, Phil on hair, we just was going through different creative, doing different shoots.
And it's just like I did a few other viral videos that kind of like that kind of took off.
People thought one was a Nicki video and things like that.
We were just, you know, creating magic, creating certain things just about launching
his brand, just kind of re-imaging
myself and certain things.
We took that photo probably about
a month and a half ago.
He was like, yeah, let's just put it out.
I'm like, let's do it. I mean, my council,
my team was good, which is like,
I call them my MMG. My mom,
my man, and God was cool. So I was just
like, I'm putting it out.
I'm cool.
And it was just fun.
What has the feedback been?
How many celebrities are in your DMs trying to holler?
It's crazy because I used to search my name.
And then this literally, like, I really did not care what anyone had to say.
Because I'm so critical of myself.
And Shalman, you can attest to this.
Because I'm like, Shalman, oh, my God. I'm always asking for advice. I'm like critical of myself and showing me you can attest to this because I'm like show me oh my god I'll always ask him for advice I'm like now I don't care I'm like it was something
to talk about whether it was you loved it you hate it you saw it so it's just like then that night I
went to bed and like the next day I saw like Amber's post which I appreciated and it was just
like I enjoyed it I did it for me. It was for fun.
I wasn't really worried about what everyone else had to say,
but it was crazy because people were like,
yo, someone's asked me for your number.
I was like, they want to do a Sybil TV, isn't it?
They're like, nah.
I was like, oh, I'm cool.
I'm cool.
But yeah, it was fun.
All right, we got more with Karen Sybil when we come back.
We got to talk about her relationship with Nicki Minaj,
a tweet that Meek put out there, and more. But right now back, we got to talk about her relationship with Nicki Minaj.
A tweet that Meek put out there and more.
But right now, here's the game.
It's Hit It or Love It.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Karen Civil's in the building now.
Charlamagne?
I love what Nipsey's doing.
I almost feel like Nipsey is sacrificing the fame he could have for entrepreneurship.
It's just like he has so much he wants to do.
He's definitely working on his music,
and he definitely has some stuff coming out, but it's just so much business that can be done,
and that's just his work ethic.
If you know his brother, if you know his dad,
they just have that entrepreneurial spirit.
So, you know, he's part of Destination Crenshaw right now.
He's working on just so many other projects in L.A.
that I can't officially talk about.
But it's just, that's just him.
He just, he wants to be a part of it all.
So, yeah, but he definitely has the music coming out.
Now, what's your relationship with Nicki Minaj?
What do you mean, per se?
I guess somebody wrote an article.
I think Meek Mill said you were on her payroll.
It wasn't an article.
It was an Instagram caption.
I think XXL wrote about it, too.
They got to stop.
Now they're just like, Vanessa, you're paying them way too much.
Meek said that the blogs are working.
You and some other blogs are working together to sabotage him.
So everybody knows me and Meek had a great friendship, great relationship.
And it was crazy when I woke up, I saw the at, and it was just like I saw him, you know, throw.
I saw him throw the shot, and I was just like, you know, I'm not catching this right now.
I'm not reacting to it.
I'm not taking it in.
Because you have my phone number.
If we're friends and it's a genuine situation like I always thought it was,
you pick up the phone and you call me.
You don't react and say these things on social media.
And you're reacting off of, it was like a paid post or something
that had nothing to do with me.
So this isn't the first time somebody accused me of being part of a blog thing.
Before it was like somebody said I being part of a blog thing. Before, somebody said I was part of a blog-a-naughty.
It was like me, Angela, Boss Up, and two other sites.
I have a respect for other blogs.
I don't have a problem with anyone.
We all, at the end of the day, are still...
It's a business.
The websites, blogs, Instagrams, all these things are businesses.
I don't have a problem.
I'm not going to stop Meek from doing anything or be a part of trying to harm him.
Anything people have been posting about him is things that he posted on his own page.
And they kind of just reposted.
But, you know, I'm going to continue to just wish the best for him.
I always want to see him win.
I always want to see him do well.
But it's an unfortunate situation.
I'm in a whole new space.
So it's just like, I saw it and I was like, I don't really care.
We know each other's phone number and we're not doing this for social media.
Were you forced to pick a side, though?
Because you were cool with Mika and Nikki and then when they broke up.
I mean, I necessarily didn't feel like, you know, I had to choose a side because I've been in many instances where I have great relationships with people who may have not necessarily got along.
Right.
Because leave it to me, when I get married, Wayne and Busha T is in the wedding party.
You know?
So it's like, it's, it's.
Hey, that's going to work.
No, it is going to work.
You going to have a fight with your wife?
No, it is going to work.
Yeah, but.
Yeah, I don't know if that's going to work.
No, it is.
But it's just like, it's certain things I didn't feel like I had to.
One thing I will say is, you know, it's being misconstrued that, oh, Nikki is, like I've read, Nikki is paying her to do all of this.
I'm going to just say when it comes to the Young Money family in general, to MacMaine and Wayne, a lot of my career success I owe to them.
They gave me an opportunity to start.
They gave me a chance when I started my always civil enterprise business,
when I went to Beats, my first book.
Everything I have done, everything that has successfully happened to me,
they've somehow helped make happen.
So it's like even when me, Nipsey, Jorge, and Steve
decided to collectively create this marathon agency.
This was sometime last year.
You know, it's all new clients.
It's working with new people.
It's a it's a whole new marketing thing.
It's no longer having my business.
Nikki was one of the first people who reached out to me, asked me to come to the studio and was like, what are you working on?
What are you doing?
Just ask me about myself.
Just my well-being.
It wasn't a he said, she said, whatever.
She naturally, generally just was just, you know,
wanted to progress in a business sense.
So it's like we're working on things I don't even,
I don't really want to even fully discuss
that's bigger than social media and things like that.
And I tip my hat off to her because she didn't have to do that.
She can work with so many other people.
She reached out to me and
I appreciate that. So, you know, Young Money
family has always been incredible
to me, especially
Mac Mane and Wayne.
What happened with this alleged
confrontation with Remy? Like they say, Remy approached
you because of your relationship with Nicki?
No, and it was weird when I saw
the meme
and, you know, I didn't think it was a big deal.
And I was like, it's part of culture.
So I was like, all right, it's going to be a meme.
But then somebody actually called me the next day.
Like, something happened with you, remember?
I was like, oh, people really believe that?
It was like a little Kim fan.
Like, kind of edited the photo and added certain things.
And then the sites who don't like me added their two's,
like probably made a story around it.
So it was for Women on the Move.
I sit on the board for that.
We had a speaking engagement every year we do at NYU.
So they had Remy come in last minute.
And we had a conversation in the hallway.
We were talking about social media.
And she was just like, you know,
talking about different blogs and light conversation.
And the next thing I know, they took this
it was like 10 pictures.
They took this like one thing
and they were like, oh, it was a confrontation.
It was this and it was that. And I'm like,
it was like a video of her saying
like, you know, before
she came out, we actually spoke on the phone
and like
tried to work, but it didn't you know
it didn't manifest it didn't happen whatever the case may be but you know i don't i don't
necessarily have no issues with her no altercation yeah there was like no altercation no argument
that's why i didn't like i i tweeted like all the photos and didn't think much of it and just went
about my day but i just i let it i felt like it was just gonna live in social media it was like
one of those things like it's a joke like people just think it's funny you, I let it, I felt like it was just going to live in social media. It was like one of those things like, it's a joke. Like, people just
think it's funny. You got to just let it live. So that's just
what I did. I didn't really care.
You still got a passion for like hip hop?
Because you do so much different stuff.
No, I do. I mean, you know,
I have, I have
a collective team who does the whole
KarenCivil.com stuff.
They're really super passionate to keep
the site going. But I just have a lot of avenues and different things that I'm working on.
My passion right now is to continue, you know, integrating millennials, urban culture, and luxury brands,
and just premium items to just kind of just bring everything together.
The same way, you know, Hillary and Pusha T standing on the stage together.
Louis Vuitton and YG.
Like, all those different kind of things.
Well, congratulations on all that success. Thank you.
We see you grind from the bottom.
Yes, thank you. And we appreciate you
for stopping by. Oh, thank you so much for having me.
We covered everything. Yes, this is my annual
like, I come every... You come once a year?
I come once a year. We always talk beef. We always
give back.
That's why he said he wanted some grill.
We had a thing yesterday.
The chef flew in from Haiti.
It was nice.
It was really, really nice.
If I would have known, I would have invited you.
But you don't even got on the headphones I like.
Don't even know.
Look at Envy.
Don't look at me.
Look at Envy.
Direct that towards Envy.
But we make something happen.
He's probably still here.
Because your Louis plug will turn off real fast.
Well, anyway, it's Karen Simmons with The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
The Rumor has it.
On The Breakfast Club.
So listen up. Well, over the weekend, Kodak Black was on his Instagram Live
and he was talking about what he likes and what he doesn't like.
Here's what he said.
Kiki Palmer, she's great.
I'm bad, but you know what I'm saying?
I don't really like black girls like that.
So I'm sort of kind of.
All right.
Well, apparently people started going in on him on social media. You think? After that, some sort of kind of. All right, well,
apparently people started going in on him
on social media.
You think?
After that, yes,
after that went viral.
And here's what he said
as an explanation.
It didn't really
work out too well.
You ain't gonna be
dissing me
under my comment.
I ain't,
I ain't gonna
play no one
don't even comment
on my shit.
Whatever,
you talking about
black women. Bitch, fuck you. You talking about black women.
Bitch, f*** you.
You know what I'm saying?
I only like red bones.
I love black African-Americans,
but I don't like black bitches.
I like yellow hoes.
So that's my preference.
So mother f*** you.
Terrible cleanup.
I refuse to believe that black women
care what Kodak Black thinks about them
I can't think of any black woman that I know and communicate with on a daily basis
That is waking up this morning, having a bad day because they are not Kodak Black's preference
Well, I think people just want to make sure they make it very clear
That they don't want to support somebody who would say something like that
I don't think that they were supporting Kodak Black to begin with, okay?
Go on, chase your little red bones, then Kodak Black.
The dark bones would be just fine without you, okay?
Why do we say that, red bone, dark bone?
We don't say dark bone.
Yeah, no one says dark bone.
Why do we say red bone?
Bones ain't red.
All bones are white, okay?
Or beige, whatever color it is.
Right, well, of course, this was definitely something
that a lot of people had to comment on.
I was telling you, I looked on the showroom,
it had like 19,000 comments.
Yeah, because people getting upset
for no damn reason. Who cares what
Kodak Black thinks about you?
But if anybody wants to leave a comment and say what they have to say
in response to him, they're free to do so.
If they're offended by it, you're free to be offended.
I'm sure 95% of those comments
are Kodak Black is trash.
Period.
Alright, congratulations to Beyonce and Jay-Z.
Their twins are out of the hospital
and at home in Malibu.
Mm-hmm.
They were there for a week and a half
after they were born,
but now, fortunately,
because they were born prematurely,
but now they are doing well
and they'll be spending the summer
at the estate,
according to the Daily Mail,
as they reported.
I don't even sound right.
Jay-Z's kid's in Malibu.
She'll be in Brooklyn. I'm about to say Mar- No, I don't even sound right. Jay-Z's kid's in Malibu. She'd be in Brooklyn.
I'm about to say Marcy, not Marcy.
No, I don't know.
Brooklyn.
Brooklyn.
They still looking for a crib.
They said their budget for a new crib is $75 million.
They haven't been able to find one.
And they haven't been able to find one yet.
That's crazy.
They put in offers.
They haven't gotten a house yet.
Is that crazy?
Yeah, because I'm sure there's so many $75 million houses in America.
They can't find one in LA.
That's crazy.
Drop one of the Clues bombs for the car.
So they're renting a house. It's $400,000 a week.
The problem is...
Is that a tax write-off?
Part of it, I'm sure.
The real problem is the Carters want a castle.
And it's not a lot of castles in America.
They're waiting for that one castle.
Alright, now this was
unfortunate. Justine Kish.
Do you know who that is? Nope.
She's a UFC fighter and while she was having her match on Sunday, she pooted on herself.
Round of applause to her.
Drop a person.
Round of applause to her.
Did that help her?
It did not.
She still lost.
Uh-oh.
And she tweeted out, ish happens, after that video went viral yesterday as she was struggling
during that match.
And, yeah, she was not doing so well.
She said, I'm a warrior, and I will never quit.
I'll be back soon.
Whoever beat her is really good,
because you imagine putting her in a dope feed
and then all that smell and the diarrhea coming.
Well, actually, the woman that beat her
says that she doesn't want people to give her
so much flack on social media
because she does really like her.
And I actually Googled it, and by the way,
this is not something that's never happened before during
a UFC match. It has. So they actually
have video footage of other people. This happens too.
So I guess when people say I almost ished
myself, it's a real thing.
Something crazy happens. And that's hilarious
because somebody beating on you and you're like, listen,
I gotta, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta go.
And then they don't believe you. So they gotta, nope,
nope. You're gonna have to tap out and
poop out. Oh, look look at that you can see
oh yeah
it's all over
you can see the jeans
I just wonder
can you get disqualified
for something like that
that's funny
like is that a reason to say
this match is over
this is not
nah you tapped out
that is crazy
I would use that
I would use that for me
I would start taking it
and throwing it in my face
you tapped out
you tapped out
and you crapped out
right
alright and Spike Lee she's gotta have it we told you that that's gonna be on Netflix it's been adapted You tapped out and you crapped out. Right.
All right.
And Spike Lee, She's Gotta Have It.
We told you that that's going to be on Netflix.
It's been adapted into a television series where they have given it a release date.
It's going to be all 10 episodes on Netflix on November 23rd. So if you guys want to check that out.
And that movie was actually the first movie that Spike Lee directed.
So it's nice that he's now.
That was back in 1986.
So just imagine now it's going that he's now, that was back in 1986. So just imagine now
it's going to be a series on Netflix.
Now here's an update
on the fight that happened
between Migos and Chris Brown.
I'm sure you guys saw
the new footage that has emerged
of this little scuffle that happened.
And they are now saying
that Future was there
when it happened.
And DJ Khaled was there as well
with his fiance and his son, Asad.
And you can hear her screaming also. Just let's get out of here, get away, let's go.
So that's...
I don't think you guys realize how much etiquette the Migos have.
What do you mean?
Like Offset, you know, was calmly rolling up his sleeves in case there was a kerfuffle
when it came time to possibly put the beats on Joe Buttons.
And when they was walking out of the venue
after the Chris Brown scuffle,
they just looked so elegant.
Elegant.
Elegant.
Did you say eloquent or elegant?
Elegant.
Elegant.
Just walking around.
It was kind of like floating.
Just waiting for something to jump off.
Now, I will say this.
According to witnesses,
they said someone in Chris Brown's crew
actually threw the first punch.
And you can see Chris Brown didn't throw any punches or anything.
And they got him out of there as well.
All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report.
All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
I was born a donkey.
It's the donkey of the day.
Donkey, donkey, donkey.
Donkey, donkey, donkey.
It's time for the Donkey of the Day.
That's pretty funny.
Charlamagne the Devil?
Possibly.
The Breakfast Club.
Yes, Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, June 27th goes to John McEnroe.
Now, do you know who John McEnroe is, kids?
He's a 58-year-old OG in the tennis world.
He's considered one of the greatest tennis players ever.
And if anyone is qualified to be an authority on tennis, it's him.
He's got the experience and knowledge of the game
that a lot of us simply don't have.
So when he tells us something about tennis,
we really have no choice but to listen.
That was until his latest comments about Serena Williams.
Now, I don't watch tennis.
I personally think tennis is trash, okay?
Outside of Venus and Serena, it's trash, just my opinion.
But I have paid attention enough
to know that not only is Serena Williams
one of, you know, the greatest tennis
No. Serena Williams is the greatest
tennis player of all time. She's one of the
greatest athletes of all time, period, as well.
Notice I didn't have to qualify that.
I didn't say female tennis player or female
athlete. Just greatest athlete of all
time. Greatest tennis player of all
time, period.
Well, John McEnroe doesn't agree.
He was talking on NPR with Lulu Navarro,
and he had this to say about Serena Williams.
Best female player ever, no question.
If she played the men's circuit, she'd be like 700 in the world.
That doesn't mean I don't think Serena's like an incredible player.
I do, but there's, you know, the reality of what would happen on a given day, Serena could beat some players, I do, but there's, you know, the reality of what would happen on a given day.
Serena could beat some players, I believe, because she's so incredibly strong mentally.
But if she had to just play the circuit, the men's circuit, that would be an entirely different story.
John McEnroe, really?
You can't be serious, man. You cannot be serious!
Now, I don't throw around the word sexist and misogynistic
too often, but I'm pretty sure this is a great
example of that. Okay, you're telling me
that Serena Williams, the owner of 23
Grand Slam titles, a woman who has
the third highest career earnings of any tennis
player, male or female, the oldest
player to win a Grand Slam singles
title after she won one this year back in
January. I mean, I am literally holding in my hand
like six pages.
Okay? Six whole pages
of accomplishments from Serena Williams.
It's overwhelming. In 2012,
you know, Wimbledon, in her
semifinals match, she hit a record 24
aces in one match. She's been associated
press female athlete of the year four times.
She's been WTA player of the year
seven times. She's been female
athlete of the year at the BET Awards 11 times.
Okay?
That may mean nothing to John McEnroe, but it means something to me, damn it.
All I'm trying to say is the most decorated tennis player of all time,
Serena Williams, in your eyes would be ranked 700th.
She had to play with the men.
I had no idea there were 700 professional tennis players in the world.
All right?
It's more professional tennis players than it is NBA players.
But the 700th player in the world on the men's tour right now,
let me put this in perspective for y'all.
The 700th player in the world on the men's tour right now,
how do you pronounce his name?
Assam Tawil.
Assam Tawil of Egypt.
All right?
He's 27 years old with no career titles.
Zero.
You're comparing Serena Williams, who has 23 Grand Slam titles,
to a man who has zero career titles.
John McEnroe, cover up.
Your sexism is showing.
Okay, Serena Williams actually addressed this type of misogyny
on Good Morning America back in December of 2016.
Let's flash back to what she had to say. addressed this type of misogyny on Good Morning America back in December of 2016.
Let's flash back to what she had to say.
Being a woman is just a whole new set of problems from society that you have to deal with as well.
If I were a man, I would have 100% been considered the greatest ever a long time ago.
And that's that, folks. It's really that simple.
If Serena Williams was a man with these kind of accomplishments and accolades,
she would be considered the greatest tennis player of all time.
Period.
Wouldn't even be close.
Okay, for John McEnroe to have the audacity, the unmitigated gall to say, at some point, a woman's tennis player can be better than anybody
and outshine the males, but just not now?
No.
At some point, dear John, that some point you're talking about is right now, currently, the present, today.
And her name is Serena Williams.
Please give John McEnroe the biggest hee-haw, please.
Now, of course, John McEnroe has been getting slandered relentlessly on social media, and rightfully so.
But he has responded to all the backlash.
Let's hear what John McEnroe had to say, please.
You ain't gonna be dissingroe had to say, please.
You ain't going to be dissing me under my comment.
Man, I ain't going to play no comment on my shit.
Whatever.
You talking about black women.
Bitch, fuck you.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm like black bitches.
Whoa, John.
Relax.
Goodness gracious.
Why, John?
Why so harsh? Goodness gracious. All right. Thank you for John. Relax. Goodness gracious. Why, John? Why so harsh?
Goodness gracious.
All right.
Thank you for that donkey today.
Well deserved.

Oh, sorry, guys.
Now, your ex is an F-boy.
Why is he an F-boy?
Because we broke up twice.
And I normally don't give a person a second chance in my life, but I did with him.
And every time we broke up, he would do little petty stuff, like break stuff in
my house, tear up TVs.
He would turn over milk
and eggs in the refrigerator so I would have to clean it up.
Definitely an F-boy.
What is wrong with him? Yes, that's why I call him an F-boy.
He's just a bitter, grown
man that he can't stand with a simple relationship.
Did you ever challenge him to any
kerfuffles?
No. No,
I didn't. Oh, okay.
I just wanted to let the world know.
His name is Joe. Joe from where?

We were three weeks of my life.
And I dismissed him.
I'm like, listen, I can't deal with you no more.
I mean, like, I love your daughter.
She cool, but you are aggravating.
So he started off hiding you as the babysitter.
Then he tried to move in with you and date you.
Then, the shocker,
when we stopped talking,
this man literally started,
as soon as she started dating my best friend
that stayed across the hall from me,
literally moved in her house
and me and her stopped talking for like a week.
But we grown.
So he just needed a place to stay basically yes and then me and

He brought hell to me.
It was a hurricane going on in Palm Beach County because I'm from Florida.
Hey.
Wow.
It was a hurricane going on.
I'm starting to believe Charlamagne when he says all crazy people are from Florida.
I don't know when y'all going to listen to me.
I keep telling y'all all the craziest people in America is in the Bronx and all of Florida. I don't know
when y'all gonna realize that. Tony,
good morning. Hey,
good morning. Tony, now
your ex is crazy, Tony? Yeah, my
ex is crazy. What happened was
we was going out for about two
years, right? You know, on and off, you know,
regular stuff.
She told me she was pregnant. She got pregnant
and then, you know, couple weeks after that she told me that was pregnant. She got pregnant. And then, you know,
a couple weeks after that,
she told me that she had a miscarriage.
Now, I don't know if she had a miscarriage
or an abortion,
because right after that,
she blocked me on everything.
She blocked my, you know, my phone calls.
She blocked my text messages, Facebook,
you know, I.Z.
Just after she said she had a miscarriage,
she just blocked you,
nothing else happened?
Yeah, she just blocked me.
She was mad.
Apparently, she felt like I wasn't supporting her enough.
Just a simple fact that I wasn't, like, searching up, like, doing all the research about, you know, babies and stuff like that.
Mind you, I already have a kid.
He's seven years old.
But she wanted me to, you know, like, get the apps and everything like that and tell her, like, what she should do and everything.
But I was supporting her in other ways. I was supporting her, you know, like, get the apps and everything like that and tell her, like, what she should do and everything. But I was supporting her in other ways.
I was supporting her, you know, financially.
I was trying to get her, you know, ice cream, whatever I could.
I was trying to cook for her, you know.
I was just trying to support her, you know, emotionally and mentally.
She wanted me to actually, like, tell her how she should carry the baby
and everything like that.
Wow.
So after she lost the baby, he just deleted her on everything.
I need y'all to understand.
Say the name first and foremost.
That's the point of X-Files.
You got to say her name first and foremost, his name first and foremost.
All right.
800-585-1051.

What's up, bro? Let's start off with telling us
your ex's name, man. What's your
ex's name and where they from?
She's from Cleveland.
Okay, now what happened?
Man, look, I had proposed to this damn girl.
She got me for a ring, like 10 bands, a motorcycle, my car.
Put me in jail at the end of the day, man.
Trying to give me robbery cases because I had my bike and my car in her name.
I spent in jail like a whole month fighting this case trying to tell them I ain't robber or nothing.
This is my stuff.
I just threw it out of my house because I was tired of it.
She was a gold digger.
I got hit by one.
So wait, so you were really, really in love with her though?
Sure was.
Yeah, I was really, really in love with her.
I took care of her daughter.
I was with her for like six years.
Oh my gosh.
I was with her for like nine months.
How did this go so left?
How did this go so left? How it go so left?
She was a gold digger.
She was just really just,
she was out for my money.
For real.
She was out for my,
everybody was telling me,
but I was blinded for real
because I had custody
of my kids
and she was holding me down.
But she was only
holding me down
to get money.
But me and my son
rolled back the other day
and it was so funny
we rolled back
on the freeway.
So she was in a white Monte Carlo and it was so dirty. It was so old. So me and my son rolled back the other day. It was so funny. We rolled back on the freeway. So she was in a white Monte Carlo.
It looked so dirty.
It was so old.
So me and my son grabbed that.
So we look at the same time because the cardboard was so slow.
We go around the car.
He's like, ooh, that's Chase.
I'm like, ooh, let's get away.
He's like, Daddy, drop the top so she can see us.
I'm like, no.
Okay.
Oh, my gosh.
All right.
Goodness gracious.
Alex, come on in.
At least he got out of there.
Yeah.
Alex, come on in.
You're from Houston.
Your ex tried to hit you because what?
He wanted me to get rid of the baby.
He kept talking about there was no way I was going to be his first baby mama.
Well, I really figured it out.
What is your Instagram?
I need to see what you look like.
I need to know why he didn't want you to be the first baby mama.
My Instagram is, if I remember correctly, at Miss Allie Baby.
Miss Allie Baby.
I can tell you why he didn't want you to be the first baby mama, though.
Why?
Because you was the side chick.
So he had a main girl, so he couldn't get you pregnant.
That's what I think.
I ain't know what you think.
That's what I know.
He ended up marrying the girl he cheated on me with.
What's his name?
Avery. Well, guess what? If only, does she know
what you know? That he's a cheater? I don't think
she knows. Well, she has to know because now she knows
about my child because I found her on Facebook.
Oh, you did have the baby. Wow.
Yeah, I kept the baby. We have an
almost two-year-old daughter.
He's never
claimed, never done anything for, but he's joined the military
and won't spend the dime.
Wow.
Damn, that's sad.
Want to say his name again?
Avery.
Hello, who's this?
Hello.
Hey, what's your name?
Um, I'd rather remain anonymous.
Okay, all right.
Now tell us about your ex-husband
and why nobody should date him.
Oh, my God.
He is such a deadbeat.
During the time that we were married,
the only thing he ever bought our son were diapers and wipes.
And then when I left and filed for support, he opened a GoFundMe account where he was put on child support.
I don't like how you said only diapers and wipes.
Like diapers and wipes are not important and essential to a young baby's upbringing.
They are. But he wanted to wait for people to give him gifts to clothe him.
He didn't even want to buy him formula.
Wow.
All right.
What's his name?
They know him as P Breezy on the streets.
A paralegal.
The streets of what?
A paralegal who earned about $98,000 a year, collected $6,000 on GoFundMe.
Sheesh.
I'm sorry for you, Mama.
That shouldn't be legal.
All right, well, X-Files, there you have it.
800-585-1051.
We do it each and every Tuesday.
You can call us up here and warn us about your ex.
Yes, always remember that one person's trash
is just another person's trash,
and sometimes we have to be made aware of that trash.
All right, well, we got rumors on the way, Yee?
Yes, let's talk about 2 Chainz, Pretty Girls Like Trap Music, which, by the way, aware of that trash. All right. Well, we got rumors on the way, Yee? Yes, let's talk about 2 Chainz,
Pretty Girls Like Trap Music,
which, by the way, I love that album.
We'll tell you how it did in the first week,
plus Young Thug's album as well.
Easy breezy, beautiful Thugger girls.
All right, we'll get into all that
when we come back.
Keep it locked.
This is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Yes, morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk 2 Chainz.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report.
This is The Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Yes, so 2 Chainz, pretty girls like trap music.
I've been listening to that in my car for the past week.
Actually sold 106,000 in the first week, so congratulations to 2 Chainz.
How much?
Drop on the clues bomb for 2 Chainz.
Know what you said?
$106,000.
Wow.
Congrats.
Congrats.
I haven't really gotten into the Pretty Girls love trap music album yet.
I listened to like the first couple records, dope tunes.
Shout out to 2 Chainz.
But I haven't listened to the whole album yet.
It's a great album.
I'm happy for them.
Shout out to 2 Chainz.
Yeah, I've been working.
I'm going to get into the gym today and listen to the whole album. It's a great album. I'm happy for him. Shout out to 2 Chainz. Yeah, I've been working. I'm going to get into the gym today
and listen to the album though.
Now, Young Thug's
Beautiful Thugger Girls
sold 37,000.
So both albums
made the top 10.
2 Chainz was number two
and Young Thug was number eight.
Big difference between
37,000 and 106,000 though.
Salute to that boy 2 Chainz.
All right.
And 2 Chainz is age appropriate
hip hop too, by the way.
I know that he makes trap music, but let's not get it messed up.
He's a grown-ass adult.
All right, now let's get into Mike Epps.
His granddaughter actually came on stage.
She's a comedian as well and performed.
Here is Mike Epps introducing her.
Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Boo.
Boo.
What's going on? Boo. Boo. What's going on?
Oh, yeah.
You did that little routine going.
I love you.
Love you, too.
Aw.
All right, come on.
Let me go back and get you a little Hennessy.
That boo-hoo joke was funny.
He said she got more laughs than he did.
That's funny.
And then he said she also had the nerve to ask how much she's getting paid after she got off the stage.
But it's funny coming from a toddler.
Right, it's cute.
I don't think Mike Epps could do that joke.
Yeah, an adult couldn't get that off.
All right, let's talk about more jokes.
Drake was hosting the NBA Awards last night.
And the Most Valuable Player Award, by the way, went to Russell Westbrook, who also got the
Best Dressed award as well.
Now, we had some back and forth with Kenny the Jet
Smith. Here is what Kenny Smith had to say
about Drake. That was great material by
Drake, but we had a question. Did he write it?
Drop on a clues bomb for Kenny Smith,
Tammy.
Now, Drake responded. Here's what he said.
Kenny, somebody just told me about
your writing joke backstage.
It's wise words from the most expendable member of the TNT crew.
Drop on the clothesline for Drake.
I mean, the tit for tat is amazing, you know, because Kenny Smith is,
when I thought about it, he is the most expendable member of that show.
Because you got Charles, you got Shaq, you got Ernie.
He can replace Kenny.
All right.
Well, Drake also had jokes throughout the night.
Here are some of his one-liners.
We got Allen Iverson in here somewhere,
probably on a super casual vibe,
just connecting with some old friends, you know?
Got the Brooklyn Nets in here
trying to get verified on Instagram tonight.
It's a lot of blue checks coming your way, boys, I promise.
I'm legit excited for y'all.
Draymond Green stopped kicking people in the groin
and moved on to something much worse, his own podcast.
It's a tough listen.
LeBron James recently went bald and social media had an absolute...
Oh, sorry.
This is a joke from 2007.
We're going to keep it rolling.
Slow down, Drake.
Slow down, money.
You're speeding a little bit.
You got to let those things land.
And he is an actor by nature.
He does a great job when he does Saturday Night Live and everything.
But I'm sure he was a little nervous. I mean, it's the NBA Awards
and he's a huge sports fan.
He's done the ESPYs, he's done SNL.
I'm sure he was nervous doing all of them.
He's done that several times already.
He just was speeding, that's all.
He was going so quick. Alright, and let's discuss
this Hamilton challenge that Lin-Manuel
Miranda is doing. It's the
hashtag ham for all challenge.

I've been reading Common Sense by Thomas Paine.
So men say that I'm intense, that I'm insane.
You want a revolution, I want a revelation.
So listen to my declaration.
We hold these truths to be self-evident
That all men are created equal
So when I meet Thomas Jefferson
I'ma compel him to include women in the sequel
Work!
Alright, so if you wanna do that challenge
I loved Hamilton, the play
But I could not remember not one song from Hamilton
I just know that it was amazing
But if you ask me to quote something from there right now
I could not do it
Right
Well, you know It's not happening I guess you ask me to quote something from there right now, I cannot do it. Right. Well, you know.
It's not happening.
I guess you could always print out the lyrics or pick a song that's your favorite song.
And do it yourself, right?
All right.
Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Rumor Report.
All right.
